A new article is up on indycar.com talking about the new car project. It hit me the other day though that if Honda is going to stay in American open wheel racing, then would they use their influence to propose the new Indycar to be similar to an F1 car?
I say this because Honda is struggling mightily in their F1 program and if they can invest money in engines and aero packages in the new Indycar, then wouldn't this be to their advantage for more "testing" time and practice for their F1 program. The current F1 package would be deadly on ovals, but would be great for the roadcourses. Also, I think F1 are putting more restrictions for design and costs for 2010.
Thoughts?
